“One Less Worry”

Beacon House becomes a home away from home for patients and families that travel across the U.P. to receive specialty medical care at U.P. Health System- Marquette and the Upper Peninsula Medical Center.

The private, nonprofit, donation-based organization ensures that families never have to ask, “Where am I going to stay and how am I ever going to be able to afford it?” during a medical crisis. As the Upper Peninsula’s only hospitality house, Beacon House oversees the facilities at two locations, 33 private rooms at Beacon House and 21 rooms called Hospitality Rooms at UPHS – Marquette.

Our Plans for a new Beacon House include you!

Our new house will be designed to be a Hospitality House, from the ground up.

Our floor plan will be welcoming to all families. Using U.P. contractors and donated services, we hope to be able to start building as close to the opening of UPHS-Marquette in 2018. A grass-roots campaign “Legacy of Love” includes every U.P. community coming together.

Beacon House, Hospitality Rooms, Your Coffee for a Cause, and The Wig Salon for Cancer Patients are programs under the management of Hospitality House of the Upper Peninsula (HHUP). HHUP is a non-profit entity that serves families of patients receiving medical care at UP Health System locations, including Peninsula Medical, UPHS - Bell, and UPHS - Marquette. We are part of the Hospitality House Network (HHN) and many of Beacon House guests are eligible for benefits provided by UP Health Plan (UPHP).
